    I wonder will we see more egyptian gods? maybe a Norse god or two. Ride the coattails of Thor. I would assume we will see a reintroduction of Angels. They are two powerful for the show to just disregard them. I can't remember them being written out, Cas is due back too. Wasn't really a fitting end to his character.


  • Registered Users Posts: 537 ✭✭✭angelll


    Meh,it was ok,didn't see the point of any of it though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,113 ✭✭✭✭ejmaztec


    Good stand alone episode really liked the egyptian theme. That scene with the Rabbi just seems to cut short.

    The impression that I had from that was that the rabbi would probably appear in a future episode for some reason, so there would be at least some kind of explanation.

    Good episode today with two good guest stars. They are dragging out the whole Dean's guilt thing too much though.

    Yeah, it was pretty good fun. I think having two witches was good value creatively and worked better than one would have, some nice deaths, too. The Levithan guy was never really going to be centre stage here, nice move having the witch put him down for a while.

    'Hearts in my cupcakes?!!?!?'


  • Registered Users Posts: 537 ✭✭✭angelll


    Enjoyed it too,loved seeing james marsters again :D What's up with bobby by the way...has he been taken over by the leviathans (sp?) or something...something just seems a bit off with him.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 18,509 CMod ✭✭✭✭The Black Oil


    I know what you mean although it's a little hard to tell when it's just phone talk. I think sometimes Bobby's a bit impatient with the boys because he feels they're not as on the ball as they should be.

    I haven't watched any of the new episodes since the season opener, is it worth catching up on?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,032 ✭✭✭✭Basq

    No.. not really.

    I thought last season started poorly.. but this year has been GODAWFUL!

    That's disappointing. I think American Horror Story will be my new Supernatural. There shouldn't've been a Season 6, let alone a Season 7. It's completely jumped the shark now, haven't they?


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 18,509 CMod ✭✭✭✭The Black Oil


    I can't really think of a moment that struck me as a jump the shark situation for SPN, nothing stands out as un-Dean/Sam like in that respect.

    I think sometimes people are too quick to judge a show's new season based on the first few episodes, although granted we're 5 episodes in now, so I can understand that not everyone's happy. Ideally, they would have ended it at the end of year 5, going on longer is always risky.

    Well thank f*** for that. Supernatural is back on form. Lots of development on the main plot (the Amy thing is out in the open, Crowley is back, and we finally have the head honcho of the leviathans)

    Plus the soft rock interlude was the funniest thing I've seen in the last 6 episodes. :)

    Just keep that standard up until the end and I'll be happy.

    In regards to the head honcho.
    Is he running for president?
    Can't beat defeating demons with cleaning products. :D

    We need an appearance by Barry Scott as a hunter.

    Yeah, it was good, best of 7 so far. Felt like a reboot in a way - scrapping their IDs, ditching the car for a while, linking to the pilot, a good bit of humour, Dean's singing, lol, and some good Bobby stuff. I'm still a little underwhelmed by the Leviathans as an enemy. The younger FBI was a bit of a clown, so no surprise he's a Leviathan.

    Post-Amy sulky Sam? *shrug*

    Also, Saul Tigh!

    I liked the big honcho guy, some good acting outta him for the small appearance he made..

    And i found out what the leviathans mouth graphic reminds me of, the tooth fairies from hellboy 2

    tooth_fairies.jpg

    All in all a good episode and hoping it stays on par..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,995 ✭✭✭Sofiztikated


    Decent episode. Who knew Bobby could have "feelings!"

    But yet another Sam and Dean split? That's at least one every season since 2, it's getting a bit old at this stage.


  • Registered Users Posts: 537 ✭✭✭angelll


    Was away so had a double episode to watch today :) Really enjoyed them both,seems like we're getting back on form. Loved dean singing in the car :D Thought the slash fiction referral with the campbell brothers was v good too.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 18,509 CMod ✭✭✭✭The Black Oil


    7.07.

    Good ep, not spectacular, more of a staple diet episode. Liked that the burning bones thing didn't work as rapidly as it has done before/the ghost stayed around for a while. Some good humour and nice bashing of the psychic industry.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,534 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    Decent episode alright, nice gore too.

    The breakup at the end of the last episode was pretty pointless. Looks like whole story with Amy is now wrapped up (until the son is old enough for revenge!)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,534 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    Apart from the standoff at the end, I didn't really like this one. Felt a bit fillery.


  • Registered Users Posts: 537 ✭✭✭angelll


    Yep felt the same mr E,only thing it did was get crowley in contact with the boys again and we already saw him last week with the leader of the leviathans.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 18,509 CMod ✭✭✭✭The Black Oil


    Yeah, it was a little fillery. I liked the self-referential humour, though there's always the danger of overdoing it and they've to be careful with someone like Becky as she could have been very annoying, cutesy, dorky, sure. The writers are obviously really aware of the internet fanbase and its more whacky elements, but it wasn't a stand out episode for stuff that's meta. I don't think we'd seen a crossroads demon in a while, so good to see one again. I'm not fussed about seeing Crowley again, though I like his anti-Levithan stance...assuming he's being honest.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,788 ✭✭✭tvnutz


    I thought they were going to bring Chuck back into it and explain what happened to him but it never happened so I was disappointed. No advancement of the storyline.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,032 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    There was so much promise in that episode..

    .. but a real lack of humour and Kardashian references left me feeling a bit disappointed!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,439 ✭✭✭Skinfull


    I enjoyed this ep and feel like its finding its stride again. I prefer the boo eps and havent really liked an arc story since the yellow eyed demon. Though this was less boo and more woo but at least the bros didnt split up again. That IS getting old!


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 17,994 Mod ✭✭✭✭ixoy


    Oh you better not have. Don't think about doing it! Two week wait to find out what happened.

    No mention of promos either please - I don't want even an inkling of what happens next.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,534 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    First half was standard monster of the week stuff, but the second half was excellent!

    I wonder if
    he was switched out? Dick kind of overemphasised that he could be anyone he wanted. My money is on the Asian chick or Edgar in the back seat
    .

    I don't think so:
    If it was one of the Leviathan, they'd heal too easily - they're impervious to bullets.
    I reckon it really is Bobby and they're going to turn to Crowley to help them out. A deal with the devil that'll have repercussions for the season.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,788 ✭✭✭tvnutz


    They already got rid of Cas,who was a great character and is missed already. They kill Bobby off and they will lose something altogether! can't happen! better not happen! why no episode next week?

    Because they hate us and want to show some mini-series crap instead.


  • Registered Users Posts: 537 ✭✭✭angelll


    In supernatural...how does someone become an angel? Is it possible for a human to take angel form? Or guardian angel even...Just wondering where they could be going with this! With Cas gone bobby taking over his role could be v handy,how else will they defeat the leviathans? I suppose Crowley coming back had to mean something but don't want him near poor Bobby! They were leading up to his death alright,with all the soul searching talks with Dean in the car....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,534 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    I rolled by eyes at the start of this episode (Oh god, not a bloody dream sequence episode...) but it was really REALLY great. Heavy stuff, hard to watch, but really well acted. The scenes with Bobby and his dad were terrific.

    Good cliffhanger too..... one month to wait to see how it pans out, though.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 18,509 CMod ✭✭✭✭The Black Oil


    Those multiple time/perspective shift things are often a little choppy, but it was well done. Agreed with Bobby and the scenes with his Dad, what a prick. I hope the reaper comes back in the next episode because they could flesh him out a bit more.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,788 ✭✭✭tvnutz


    Ye I really hate dream episodes and the like but Bobby is such a great character that this was good. hence why I really hope they don't kill him off. They can spout all this nonsense that this show is about the two brothers but I think most people here would agree that some of the strongest stuff has come because they had such a great supporting cast, most notably the characters of Castiel and Bobby.

    They already got rid of Castiel, a mistake in my opinion, getting rid of Bobby would be even worse.

    Yeah agreed, very heavy going, I really hope he doesn't die. It will really feel like there is something missing if he goes, we're only half way through. But it has given Dean some venom, we haven't seen that in a while.


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 17,994 Mod ✭✭✭✭ixoy


    Excellent episode but damn, one of the most depressing episodes I've ever watched of the show. Jim Beaver was great in this.
    I liked how Dean said what we were hoping to think - Bobby always make it. I'm really not sure this time. If he's there at all, he'll be Ghost Bobby at best. Damn this will really cut the Winchester boys up. To say they're going to be pissed is an understatement: Bobby was far more of a father than their biological dad ever was.

    RIP Bobby

    Yeah very sad ep indeed. I think Bobby's "killed" off with maybe a guest appearance here and there as a spirit/ghost. One of my mates was in the house when I was watching it, before I put it on i was saying "the series is a bit of craic, nothing too serious" :o

    Was great to get the back story about shooting his father. Rufus in the episode was excellent along with Bobby.

    I hope the brothers don't mull over his death for too long and get into some serious revenge mode for the next half of the season.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,534 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    He's not gone yet....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 85 ✭✭StiLL-TrAiNinG


    I liked the episode overall but some of the little things bugged me, I think the writing has slipped a good bit over the last season or two.

    They just rush to the hospital and it's all "Oh, your friend here was shot in the head? Better get him right into surgery and ask no questions whatsoever". I mean I'm no expert or anything, but shouldn't something like that raise just an eyebrow or two? They didn't even flash any badges, just said they were his nephews.

    Stuff like that never really came up before, they'd always throw in some line and let you fill in the rest, but it was plausible (like how they made money was some opener where it showed them pool sharking).

    Oh yeah, or when Dean was shouting in the car park and a few people started filming - this is about a week or two after they were all over the news for being massive serial killers.

    I just hope they have something good planned for the finale and don't spiral into a series of bad cliffhangers to keep the series going just for the sake of it (although, I guess it may already be happening ;_;).


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 845 ✭✭✭red dave


    Just watched the promo for the next episode:
    Looks like Bobby doesn't feature in it at all. Of course they can edit the promo to make us see whatever, but it looks like they don't waste too much time and get stuck into a main story arc




    Some news and spoilers about future eps:
    Castiel will appear in 3 future eps this season. Episode 17 and another 2.

    I cried like a girl when bobby died

    That last scene when sitting with Sam and Dean watching the TV was very sad indeed :(

    Yay it's back :) Not a bad episode,a bit fillery.....one thing though,what happened to Deans beer! Think it may be bobby related?


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 18,509 CMod ✭✭✭✭The Black Oil


    Yes, the secondary/MOTW story was a bit soft, but I enjoyed the rest.


  • Registered Users Posts: 537 ✭✭✭angelll


    Have to say Dean can sure fill a suit :D But yet again another filler...yawn.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,534 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    Hands up who thinks the Amazons are better bad guys than Leviathans? :)

    Decent episode this week, and I think we are going to see
    Bobby again soon (in some form or other)
    ...


  • Registered Users Posts: 91 ✭✭bunnymunro


    I dunno i have quiet enoyed the last few episodes..back to supernatural basics..monster of the week obligatory ac/dc song few good laughs and horror...i have to say half way through i thought there were hints that the amazons will play a big part in defeating the leviathen..then again i assumed deans daughter would be involved..shes dead now though so who knows..its improved from the start of the season though..i much prefer a slow moving major story arc..as opposed to the start of this season and last where big bads seemed to appear and be defeated in one or two episodes..i think supernatural is at its best when the big bad is casting a shadow in the backround such as the impending arrival of satan in season 4 as the boys rushed to stop the seals being broken..season six seemed to be badly planned and as if they were making it up as they went along..was especially disappointed with the way they dealt with the mother(!) i think it was..she could have been a great character but within a couple of episodes she was gone..it seemed she was just hemmed in there to explain the who souls in purgatory thing and how to get them..anyhow im rambling..heres hoping for a cracking ending to season 7..still expecting castiel to return in one form or another..also whats going on with the angels while all this os goin down?
